"This is a dish I have loved since I was a child. It's called lotus leaf dumplings. It's my grandmother's specialty. When I was crying as a child, my grandmother would make this for me. You can try it too. Although it's not something exquisite, it's something I use often." Yurong scooped a portion of dumplings for Wei Xuanning.

She specifically asked to eat in the room so that the couple could be close to each other and feel more comfortable.

Wei Xuanning smiled and looked at them. The white skin and green edges of the dumplings were filled with fillings. They looked like something to please children. He tasted them happily. In fact, they only contained some common condiments, but somehow they tasted quite good.

Seeing that Yurong was only concerned with serving him, he hurriedly said, "You should eat something too. It would be boring if I eat alone."

"You're such a grown-up, but you still need someone to accompany you." Although Yurong said this, she also used it herself.

After the meal, the servant helped him rinse his mouth before Wei Xuanning prepared to go to the yamen.

Yurong smoothed his clothes, and when he was out, she stood on tiptoe and kissed him, then ran away with a smile. Wei Xuanning was stunned for a long time before he went to the yamen with a serious face.

Today, I came from Yang's house and arrived at the yamen earlier than usual. As soon as I got off the carriage, I saw a young man walking towards me. The man had a rare smile on his face, a tall figure, and was wearing a blue riding suit.

"Xuan Ning."

Wei Xuanning said happily: "Zhongting, Zhongting you are back."

"I wanted to catch up with your wedding, Xuan Ning, but I was delayed for two days on the road. Unfortunately, I was delayed." Wei Zhongting smiled implicitly and asked, "I haven't asked you how your wedding is going yet?"

He is Wei Xuanning's good friend and grew up with him. Now he is the commander-in-chief of the Central Army of the Five Cities Military Department. He is young and promising, but he is exhausted because he just went to the south to suppress bandits.

"You know that this marriage is a rogue act, so there's no need to tease me." Wei Xuanning said lightly.

Wei Zhongting understood. "If we delay for a while longer, this matter may not be accomplished. Princess Xin'an is now imprisoned in Puzhou and can no longer threaten you."

In fact, if you wait three more days, you don’t have to get married.

He and Wei Xuanning had a very good relationship, so after hesitating for a moment, he still asked, "You and her..."

If you are not actually married, it is not necessarily impossible to cancel the engagement.

Wei Xuanning lowered his eyes, "It's too late." He didn't expect King Han to act so quickly. And that day, he ran in the rain holding Yang in his arms, and was afraid of missing the auspicious time.

In fact, that day——

Even the day when Princess Xin'an was imprisoned was kept secret, and many people still don't know about it.

Wei Zhongting's eyes widened unexpectedly. It happened so quickly. Xuan Ning was not this kind of person. He looked handsome, but he was not a playboy. How could he change so quickly?

He had long heard that the Sixth Lady of the Yang Family was a beauty as beautiful as a fairy, otherwise Zhang Lingyi would not have fallen in love with her at first sight. He never thought that even Xuan Ning could not help herself.

When Wei Zhongting, the thousand-year-old ancient well, showed this look, Wei Xuanning blushed for a rare time.

Wei Zhongting saw that his friend was uncomfortable, so he quickly changed the subject, "The crown prince will be enthroned tomorrow, and I have to be in charge of the defense of the palace. What about you? Have you been invited to attend the ceremony tomorrow?"

Not everyone can attend the ceremony of enthroning the crown prince, only those of high rank can go. The Left Prime Minister can go, but Xuan Ning may not.

Wei Xuanning smiled and said, "I am the son-in-law of the Yang family. Princess Han specially invited relatives and friends to the mansion, so I will go."

"I actually forgot about this." Wei Zhongting laughed.

Yes, although Xuan Ning's wife Yang is only a branch of the Yang family, her father is the military commander of King Han's palace and has a close relationship with Queen Han.

In the past, the Wei family and King Han had no contact. First, Concubine Wei had a prince. Although he was young, he was born smart and was very much loved by the old emperor. Apart from the crown prince, the tenth prince was the most beloved by the emperor. When he was a child, he was often held on his lap. Therefore, the Wei family never thought that after the death of Queen Gu, Shen would be made queen in the end. There was a fierce dispute over the queen back then, let alone now.

Secondly, the King of Han was older and the Tenth Prince was younger, so they seldom interacted with each other.

Marrying the daughter of Yang family by chance was not without help, which was also the reason why Wei Xuanning lived with Duiyue.

Yurong was feeling very comfortable at her mother's house. Yang Zhao was also in high spirits. King Han was named Crown Prince, and he had already received the clear consent of Queen Han, so he would probably be promoted. How could he not be happy?

"Dad, has Princess Han told you about the promotion she wants?" Princess Han is really reliable. She keeps her word. Those who follow her can all be promoted. Who wouldn't be willing to ask her to do things?

Even in my previous life, she took care of me a lot.

Yang Zhao whispered, "I heard that he is at least a third-rank."

Zhu said happily, "That's really great news. Now our family has three good things coming. Our daughter-in-law is going to give birth to a child, our sister Rong has found a good husband, and even you have been promoted."

"Our sister Rong won't have to bow her head in everything from now on." Yang Zhao looked at Yurong happily.

He felt a little uncomfortable when he saw his daughter being respectful to Wei Xuanning. After all, it was because his family's status was too low. But as a father, he couldn't say many things.

Yurong knew what her father meant, so she smiled and said, "Tomorrow I will go to the Han Palace with mother to celebrate the appointment of the Crown Princess. Maybe we can see father too."

Yang Zhao nodded, "Don't worry, I'll get someone to pick you up."

Zhu knew exactly who this person was, but she smiled, which was rare for her. Yang Zhao also breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.

After King Han appoints a crown prince, his two concubines will no longer be able to live elsewhere and must be brought home, and at that time Zhu's consent must be obtained.

And Yang Zhao was very afraid of Zhu.

Now that Zhu's attitude has softened, he can breathe a sigh of relief.

After Yang Zhao left, Zhu asked Yurong some private matters, "Does your son-in-law have anyone to serve him?"

Yurong had not expected Zhu to ask this question. She thought for a moment and shook her head, "Originally, there were two personal servants, but they were sent away after I got married."

"Oh, that must be the maid who taught your aunt how to be good at dealing with people. It's better to send her away. I sent your brother's maid who was also good at dealing with people away a long time ago, and she is living a good life now." Zhu said thoughtfully.

After that, he reminded Yurong, "I won't say anything about how you and your aunt are doing, but you must never trust a man in this backyard."

Yurong had long understood this principle, so she smiled and said, "I know, but we can't be too nervous."

Fearing that her daughter would be seduced by her son-in-law's beauty, Zhu said hurriedly, "Your father was quite a decent man when he was young, and he was devoted to me. Now he wants to take a concubine for his future. Sometimes a man may not want to take a concubine, but there are other factors. But we women cannot tolerate it in our hearts. You can't entrust yourself to him completely."

It was rare to hear Zhu talk about this, and Yurong found it a little funny: "Then you still care so much about your son-in-law, better than you treat me? And you always praise him, saying how good he is."

"I just want to be nice to him, so that he will be nice to you. Besides, in life, sometimes appearance and talent are secondary, and the most important thing is whether you can have a sense of responsibility. Your father can't keep his promises, let alone others. You must not be fascinated by a male vixen."

Zhu was afraid that her daughter would suffer a loss.

Yurong laughed even louder, "Okay, okay, you're right, he's a male fox spirit."

"Keep your voice down, keep your voice down, or someone will hear you and think that I, the mother-in-law, am saying something bad about my son-in-law."

It was indeed a very carefree life at her mother's house. When she was waiting for Wei Xuanning to come back in the evening, Yurong had prepared a hot pot. She smiled and took off his outer coat for him, and pulled him over, "Let's eat hot pot today. It's hot and comfortable. This pot was all prepared by me."

Wei Xuanning looked at the pot on the table and asked hesitantly, "Did you make this?"

Yurong nodded seriously, "Of course I made it. I also mixed these side dishes. It took me a long time to prepare them."

He looked at her hand, and there was a small cut on her index finger. "Don't bother yourself with this. It's not good to have your hand injured. We are not people who don't have anyone to take care of us. There is no need to do these things."

"That being said, I still want to make these. Maybe my craftsmanship isn't that great, but I hope you don't mind."

Wei Xuanning scooped up the soup from the bottom of the pot and took a sip with his eyes closed. He was actually very surprised. He looked at her with wide eyes, "Is your cooking skill so good?"

"Don't be fooled by the spicy look of the pot base. In fact, I added some milk, so it tastes better. Even if you don't know how to cook for you, you have to learn it seriously." Yurong looked at him seriously.

Is she really so good to me?

Is it because I expressed my feelings yesterday?

But Yurong knew when to stop. After he finished his meal, she asked them to clear the table and then started reading a book. This book was bought by her brother. It was not a black market novel, but some landscape notes.

I composed the music while reading it, and I came up with a song right away.

So she couldn't help but play the piano. The beauty played the piano with her bare hands, and Yurong's piano skills were very superb. Although the music was unfamiliar, it was quiet and profound, and Wei Xuanning was fascinated by it.

Yurong loved playing the piano the most. She was not playing it for Wei Xuanning at this time, but just because she was in a good mood. She didn't expect that the music score she made up would be so smooth and beautiful.

It turns out that what the ancients said makes sense: writing is a natural skill and is the result of a master's hand.

When the song ended, the lingering sound lingered in the air, and Wei Xuanning couldn't help but clap his hands.

When the two of them went to bed at night, Yurong thought of what Zhu said today about not being greedy for men and vixen, and found it very funny, but she still decided to take a day off, so she went to bed and closed her eyes to go to sleep.

But Wei Xuanning didn't know if he really couldn't control himself. It was obvious that he had very strong self-control in the past. There were at least hundreds of people who seduced him, and he didn't know how many times his handkerchiefs had been thrown at him since he was a child. Some people even seduced him naked, but he remained unmoved.

How come it's so hot even though I'm sleeping next to her, with a quilt between us?

He thought about it, but couldn't help it...

In the middle of the night, the Yang family had servants delivering water, and the noise was a bit loud. Old Madam Lu next door could not help but get up from her bed and cursed inwardly, "One moment he plays the piano, the next he delivers water. Only your family has a pair of wild geese, right?"
